    The sea doesn't give gifts. It only returns what history tried to bury. Along the storm-worn shores of Koral, every wolf knows their bloodline, their place, and the ancient laws that have guided the pack for generations. Until the sea returns a child. Found alone on the northern shore, Eve bears crimson hair, emerald eyes, and a scent no wolf recognizes. The elders have no answers. The oldest songs speak in riddles. Forgotten words come naturally to her, awakening memories no one alive should remember. As Eve grows, whispers become fears. Ancient prophecies stir. Buried histories resurface. And Miles, a quiet scholar devoted to Koral's forgotten archives, finds himself drawn into mysteries that challenge everything his people believe about their past-and everything he thought he knew about Eve. Together they uncover a truth powerful enough to divide packs, rewrite history, and awaken a bloodline the world believed lost. Because some bloodlines were never extinct. They were only forgotten. A slow-burn fantasy featuring ancient wolf lore, forgotten languages, political intrigue, found family, hidden history, rich world-building, and a romance that unfolds across years rather than moments.

    Sybilla has spent thousands of years as the Goddess of Seasons, bound to an immortal existence of unyielding duty, cold perfection, and absolute isolation. She oversees the birth of spring and the death of winter across realms, but she has never felt the warmth of true emotion-until she steps onto the mortal plane and meets Clement Vandervell. Clement is just a humble farmer, living by the rhythm of the soil and the work of his hands. Yet, his simple reverence for life and unshakeable human warmth captivate Sybilla in ways centuries of celestial power never could. In his quiet cottage and sunlit fields, the goddess finds a peace she never knew existed. But the High Pantheon does not tolerate desertion. When divine scouts begin scouring the earth for their missing goddess, unnatural storms and severe droughts threaten to tear Clement's world apart. Sybilla is faced with an impossible choice: return to her throne in the heavens, or defy the gods to protect the mortal man who taught her how to truly live. A bittersweet, soul-stirring romance about love, mortality, and how brevity makes every single second precious

    Vael was made to be a weapon. For sixty-three thousand years, kings pointed him at enemies, empires named him terror, and armies learned that black armor meant death. Human skin alone could kill him, so no one touched him. Then Mira did. Not with bare hands. Not carelessly. She wrapped her fingers, asked permission, and taught an ancient weapon the shape of gentleness. When the empire executes her to regain control of him, Vael does not mourn like a man. He breaks the world like a blade. To return Mira, he must take three crowns: the crown of the body, the crown of memory, and the crown of the soul. But every crown asks a more terrible question. Is love still love if it refuses to let the dead say no? A dark fantasy tragedy about grief, resurrection, consent, and the difference between love and possession.

    Flip Sable is twelve, living in Sionisp-a territory where winter forces its people to migrate or die, and the woods are ruled by things no one names out loud. Life is quiet, tense, and fragile, held together by family routines and unspoken fear. When the season turns and the final migration begins, Flip finds themself caught between responsibility and instinct, faith and doubt, childhood and something far less forgiving. As the journey unfolds, strange signs, uneasy encounters, and old beliefs begin to press in. Flip must navigate a world shaped by gods, loss, and survival where watching, listening, and remembering may matter just as much as strength.

    She was not born of thunder or war, but of everything in between-where choices hesitate, doors linger half-open, and fate has not yet decided its shape. As the Goddess of the In-Between, she exists in the quiet thresholds of the world, unseen but always present. When Hermes, the ever-moving messenger of the gods, stumbles upon her realm, he finds something he was never meant to cross without consequence: stillness that answers back. Drawn into a connection neither of them fully understands, he begins to blur the line between passage and pause. But in a world ruled by Olympian certainty, even a moment of hesitation can change destiny-and the space between them may be more powerful than either god realizes. Written by Cie🌻.

Then she finds something impossible. Her own name is already carved beneath the ritual basin. The carving is three years old. Beside it is the name of Nilan Aras, a dangerous guardian who recognized her the moment she arrived. Thira does not remember him. Nilan remembers her. To uncover the truth, Thira must climb the Citadel's Seven Oaths, where every step toward greater power can erase another piece of her past. But the Citadel does not merely preserve memory. It decides what the world is allowed to remember. The Unremembered Oath is Book One of The Memory Throne, a mythic dark-academy romantic progression fantasy filled with forbidden magic, buried history, political secrets, and a slow-burn romance built around a past only one of them remembers.

    A self reflective story regarding my identity with gender, DID, and my own inner workings with an afterlife/entropic thoughts. It is a story that follows the descent into the underworld archetype, and takes inspiration from stories like Inanna's Descent, and parts of the Kojiki from mythology. Some more modern works that inspired this include Dante's Inferno, 1408 (the film), Paradise Lost, and the self portraits from William Utemohlen. As you read, you might see other inspirations, or connect parts, characters, and ideas in the story to other pieces of media, as the core of this work is heavily inspired by so much more, way to many to list and think of. What I wanted most was to connect the two themes I have seen for the underworld or hell afterlife, one being psychological and the other a physical place of torment. I noticed that as technology advances, we as a people move more away from the physical realm of an underworld, and instead adapt to a more trapped in our minds, or creation kind of torment, with the theory of entropy being an increasing thought as well. The original creation was meant for my college class, but parts of it had floated around in my head before this class, and now I have written what may be considered the final version as of this posting. So I hope you enjoy the little deep dive into my psyche with DID, Transness, Identity and Religious Trauma. Part 1: Revised Edition Part 2: Original Edition Part 3: Poetic Edition (WIP Maybe) Names were heavily inspired by Inanna, Izanami, Izanagi formatting, they do not connect or take inspiration from any real life use of the word.

    Before God, there was her. Everleigh was the first flame - the woman the garden tried to forget. Cast out for defying creation itself, she wandered through centuries of ash and silence, birthing faith, fury, and love in equal measure. Every age she has lived, she's rebuilt what the gods destroyed. Every lifetime, she's lost the one soul she cannot live without. Now, in a world of glass towers and burning skies, the cycle begins again. Christian Hale - orphan, outcast, and haunted by dreams of crucifixion - carries scars that no mortal fire could make. When his anger shatters light and language, he draws the attention of a substitute teacher who knows his face too well. Eve Rowan is no ordinary woman. She is Everleigh, wearing another name, and he is the reborn son she has found and lost across lifetimes. But love is no longer the only war being waged. Adam walks the earth again - wearing a billionaire's smile, gathering disciples, and seeking the child who will unmake him. The old gods stir beneath the storm, and Eve must summon the five elemental wives she once bound to her cause: fire, shadow, wind, soil, and sea. Together, they will stand between the divine and the damned - and decide whether creation deserves to begin again. The Godless War is a haunting, mythic fantasy of rebirth, rebellion, and the love that endures after heaven burns.

    Mereana never meant to board the train. Yet when its whistle called in the middle of the night, she found herself stepping into a carriage that should not exist-a train that runs between the living and the dead. Inside, time folds in strange ways. Passengers sit in silence, clutching secrets of their own. Through the windows, she glimpses not landscapes, but fragments of memory, grief, and warning. Each stop draws her deeper into the heart of a mystery that has waited for her all along. At its center sits her grandmother-not as Mereana remembers, but as the keeper of a bargain struck generations ago. Now the rope of her whakapapa frays, and Mereana must decide whether to carry the burden of her people or let it snap forever. Haunting, dreamlike, and rooted in ancestral duty, The Last Train to Arahura is a story of whānau, memory, and the choices that bind us across lifetimes. It asks one question: What would you do if the train of the dead chose you?

    **AVAILABLE ON AMAZON** (Book One in the Whispers of Nowhere trilogy) When Gwen's father gets home late from work, it's just another typical night for the museum curator's daughter. Still, there's something strange about the artifacts he's brought home this time, something so unique that she can't help but touch them. In a blinding flash, the artifacts vanish, and a mysterious man appears in their place. Only he's not a man at all. Forneus is a daemon, an intermediary between gods and man-and the guardian of the very artifacts Gwen has just unwittingly sent back to their places of origin around the globe. Gwen doesn't have time to absorb this before a new figure emerges: Phenex, the human-personification of the legendary bird, himself. The next thing she knows, she's being whisked away from the comfort of her home into a world beyond her wildest imaginings. When she thinks things couldn't possibly get any more complicated, she's proven wrong. Because those bizarre artifacts? They were protective seals to a place called Nowhere; a prison realm created by the gods to contain all of the malevolent forces Gwen has only heard about in bedtime stories. Now those very same forces are on the rampage, intent on revenge against the gods whom imprisoned them-and they don't care who else gets hurt along the way. Possessing innate powers she can't even begin to understand, it is up to Gwen and her two mysterious allies to reclaim the lost artifacts before someone far more sinister does...

    One soul. Eighteen lives. And in each one, someone is destined to love him-or destroy him. Reborn again and again across centuries of war, a cursed spirit awakens each time with no memory-only fire burning beneath his skin. This isn't reincarnation. It's a sentence. And his name in this life... is Izel. Born under an eclipse in a city of blood and sacrifice, Izel carries a glyph that marks him for greatness-or apocalypse. The gods whisper of war, of prophecy, of a blade that must be drawn. But they didn't expect her. Citlalli has seen his future. In it, he burns the world. She was trained to stop him. To kill him before the glyph consumes his soul. But there's one problem-she's already in love with him. And if she hesitates, the gods will fall. If she obeys, she'll lose the only soul she's ever known-again and again. A dark romance of forbidden love, divine betrayal, and a fire that refuses to die.

    You die in an alley and wake in Yuriath with a voice in your head that catalogs the world. With GodMod you can mold reality with your hands... but every creation demands a price, and some choices ignite wars that don't belong to humans. Power, consent, fate: what are you willing to shape? Roxas is reborn in a living, hostile land, guided by a Console that logs everything: wounds, legends, limits. His unique skill, GodMod, lets him bend matter and symbols, but every use eats at flesh and conscience. Among remembering forests, corrupt cities, and a mask that rules the Pit, he meets Zaltrak'xia, an Huïn born for the canopy, and learns that saving someone can be an ambiguous act. In the woods of OmniArborea, where trees remember your breath, Roxas learns that every creation is a confession, every weapon an ethical choice. He meets Zaltrak'xia, a Huïn marked by chains and flight, and understands that "saving" is never neutral. Further south, through smoke and wagers, the Pit and Lady Banco pull the threads of something that smell like revolution, marked with blood. GODMOD is dark, mythic fantasy with diegetic interfaces: no flashing HUD bars-only a mind archiving what it fears to forget. Quick mini-chapters, rotating voices, visceral action, "living" worldbuilding, and questions about power, consent, responsibility. If reality can be shaped, who decides when to stop?

    Hell was never meant to burn alone. Azrion, the forgotten King of Hell, sits upon his obsidian throne as the fire within him begins to die. His realm is cracking. His children are lost. And his only hope lies in the mortal world-where a single soul shines bright enough to reignite everything. Her name is Nova. She lives a quiet life above, cloaked in silver hair, inked symbols, and an aura of love that doesn't belong in this world. But Nova is not what she seems. Her past was taken. Her power sealed. Her destiny hidden among stars and smoke. When Azrion enters her world, everything unravels. As Lucifer, the fallen Prince of Lies, rises to claim a stolen throne, the Children of Hell must choose between the truth they were denied and the lie they were born into. And in the center of it all, Azrion and Nova must face what they were, what they are, and what they're willing to become-together. This is not a story of conquest. This is a story of flame, memory, and love reborn in the ashes. For fans of dark romance, mythic fantasy, and morally complex love stories that burn hotter than Hell itself.
